Bio-Energetic pH Drops
Revolutionary Ingredients for the Natural Products Industry
All systems in our entire body operate on energy. All biochemical responses are based on the exchange of energy. One could state that energy regulates all life.
Millenia before modern science recognized a healthcare system based on biochemistry, the far eastern world began establishing the concepts of what we now call Traditional Chinese Medicine. Research into Conventional Chinese Medicine persisted steadily over millennia, with experts compiling data from measurements benchmarked against how well their subjects reacted to different therapies. Finding laws that dictated energy, and the various kinds of energy that influenced different characteristics in the human body, these pioneering scientists codified the discipline of acupuncture on this understanding.
Classic Chinese Medicine makes reference to these bio-energies as chi, or the life force. Acupuncture meridians are the channels by which these energies circumnavigate the human system. Todays scientists have tried to check and quantify these energies, with as yet no success. Nonetheless, modern diagnostic equipment verifies both the actuality and impact of chi-type energies in the human body.
In checks using MRIs (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), whenever stimulation is put on to the acupuncture point on the toe acknowledged to effect eyesight, a transmission is sent to the visual cortex of the human brain. In addition, those signals found by the MRI, travel a thousand times quicker from the foot to the brain, than a signal sent by means of the eyes to the brain.
In attempting to describe these phenomena researchers have suggested rather extraordinary hypotheses. In a perfect example, German physicist Dr. W. Ludwig suggests that: [Acupuncture] Meridians are, according to current knowledge, super conducting Lesher systems (chains of conductors from peptide pairs) which conduct light, polarization rays, as well as particles creating a connection net. Or in laymans words, you can think of these systems as an Internet-type transmission network hardwired into the body.
We have heard of consumer product returns from the Space Race, such as Velcro, Tang, and miniaturized technology components. While American development carried on in this conventional vein, Russian scientists were performing significant exploration into Traditional Chinese Energy Medicine. Dr. Yury Kronn, one of Russia’s top scientists in quantum radio-physics turned away from creating multi-photon tunable laser beam generators and other Star Wars projects to the practical applications of this brand new and fascinating physics. The objective of this exploration was to develop a technology which could cheaply produce solutions for invigorating and balancing the bodys energy system in a risk-free, foreseeable and reliable way.
Following many years of study Dr. Kronn created plasma-based digital equipment making use of a low strength alternating magnetic field for generating bio-energy. It contains a unit where bio-energies are split up from the electro-magnetic field so that the output of the generator does not give off any electro-magnetic energy, only bio-energy. This know-how harnesses specific formulations of bio-energy and infuses them into substance-carriers that dramatically improve the treated materials bioactivity. Dr. Kronn calls this technology Vital Force Technology, and the specific bio-energy preparations, Vital Force formulas.
While the exact process of the effect has yet to be completely grasped, the Vital Force infusion procedure has been proven to be highly effective by experiments carried out under rigorous controlled protocols. In a MRI-based test carried out by the Department of Radiology at the University of California , Irvine , infused substances were shown to activate acupuncture meridians as strongly as fine needles or ultrasound. The experiment results showed that the Vital Force infusion process creates substances bio-energetically active, thereby explaining their biological advantages. Or, quite simply, the infusion procedure intensifies and improves the nutritional and therapeutic modality effects on biological systems.
Vital Force Technology could infuse materials with specific Vital Force formulations for a broad variety of purposes. Formulations include those that assist in soft tissue repair, tension relief, and cellular rejuvenation. Furthermore, other qualities of Vital Force formulations have been experimentally demonstrated, including: balancing the bodys acupuncture meridians; stimulating desired electrical brain waves and balancing hemispheres of the brain; altering the absorption range of water; influencing galvanic skin response; and beneficial changes in mental conditions such as anxiety and stress, to name a few.
The most profound health related property of Vital Force formulas has been recorded with the use of Heart Rate Variability (HRV) tests on hundreds of people. Vital Force formulas repeatedly demonstrated their ability to balance and normalize the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS) response, in minutes; this kind of rapid result has never been noticed in any other dietary or therapeutic product. Positive changes in heart rate, myocardial response, high frequency and low frequency neurological characteristics, total power and vascular compliance have been recorded. Optimistic reactions in reserve capacity and physical fitness measurements were seen persistently. Bearing in mind that the ANS is responsible for over 99.9% of all life functions, using Vital Force formulas to enhance the functioning of the ANS can considerably enhance ones physiology and thus ones quality of life.

The A To Z Of Women’s Nutritional Needs
For Optimum Health Part 1
Though people claim that ladies are the weaker sex, taking into consideration the bombardment of health problems that ladies are open to, females definitely have to be formidable in order to get through life.
This article gives a quick outline and a few natural health suggestions for improving several of the more common medical disorders suffered by females.
A
AGEING
From skin wrinkles to aching bones, we all encounter becoming older. Try Pycnogenol with Grape Seed to reduce facial lines and think about Glucosamine Chondroitin and Boswellia to help with joint soreness and swelling. Make certain you take daily anti-oxidants for cell protection to live longer, better.
C
CANCER (BREAST, OVARIAN, CERVICAL) Prevention is the ideal cure. Increase the consumption of anti-oxidants through your diet with loads of fresh fruit and veggies, and through incorporating a good quality anti-oxidant formulation having good quantities of selenium, vitamin C and vitamin E.
CANDIDIASIS The problem of thrush affects many ladies and the over-prescription of medicines can easily aggravate the issue. Include Probiotic dietary supplements to restore the natural healthy equilibrium of microorganisms in the intestines. Try the natural herbal remedy, Oregon Grape which has natural anti-biotic and anti-fungal properties.
Consider a dietary fibre health supplement to help speed the elimination of candida from the body and decrease the yeast die-off headaches occasionally encountered during a candida detox.
CYSTITIS
Cranberry extracts help reduce bacteria from affixing to the urinary tract. Increase the antibiotic plant Oregon Grape. Vitamin C with bioflavanoids and zinc to aid healing. Meanwhile stay away from all processed carbs and processed sugars (sucrose, glucose and fructose being the arch enemies – some plant sugars may even help) products and boost garlic, onions and water intake.
E
ENDOMETRIOSIS Consume less fat, meats and dairy foods and increase fruit, vegetables and fibre intake. B vitamins help regulate the body’s hormones by encouraging a healthy liver. Antioxidant vitamins including the carotenoids and vitamin C have already been shown to be useful.
F
FIBROIDS Agnus Castus and milk thistle have supporting qualities. Golden Flax Oil, antioxidants, B complex and zinc.
I
INFERTILITY Research suggests that agnus castus can increase corpus luteal performance, thus prolonging the luteal phase and normalising progesterone levels often observed to be low in infertile women.
IRRITABLE BOWEL SYNDROME (IBS, CROHN’S, ULCERATIVE COLITIS) Glutamine powder for repair, fibre to clean, calcium with magnesium and zinc as an anti-spasmodic, quercetin and golden flax seed as an anti-inflammatory.

3 Ways in which stress affects your health
Any change in your normal routine or health is called stress. If you look around, one of ten people that you see at work get stressed at some time or the other. Scientists are of the opinion that stress causes certain chemical changes in the brain which adversely affects your health. Women are very vulnerable to stress due to hormonal changes. There are certain negative effects on your health. Have a look at the different effects that stress has on your health.
1. Behavioral effects: When you are under pressure, your behavior changes to worst. You incorporate bad and harmful habits like smoking and drinking as a way of getting immediate relief from stress. Others who are too much busy with work, may not exercise daily or eat regularly. They may also cut down on sleep to cope up with their work pressure. All these are likely to harm your health.
2. Leads to heart disease: There is a strong link between stress and heart disease. If the stress is intense and if the stress hormones are not used up by physical exercise, our heart rate raises. This puts tension in the arteries and causes damage to them. As the body cures this damage, the artery walls thicken which can lead to less amount of blood flow to the heart.
3. Loss of immunity: Too much of stress leads to loss of immunity. It damages the immune system to a considerable extent which is why you catch cold more when you are stressed. It also leads to headaches and irritable bowel symptoms. Doctors are of the opinion that stress may also lead to cancer.
Regular exercise can reduce the amount of stress and the harm that it causes to your health. This strengthens your heart and increases the blood flow to the heart. This helps you to become immune to diseases and lead a healthy life.
Alongside a good diet and good role models for a child, nutritional supplements can be helpful.
Researchers from California State University, designed a study to determine the effects of a low dose vitamin/mineral supplement in children aged 6¬12. This trial compared the behaviour of 468 children, half of whom were taking a daily multivitamin while the other half took a dummy pill.
After four months of the daily supplement, the children taking the multi were disciplined for violent and non-violent delinquency 47% less often than the placebo group. The lower rate of anti-social behaviour represented less threats, fighting, vandalism, disrespect, disorderly conduct, defiance, obscenities, endangering others, and other undesirable behaviours.
Look for a good quality kids’ multivitamin, preferably in a capsule to avoid unnecessary sugars additives, which can burden a sensitive or hyper-allergenic child.

Can supplements boost academic performance?
Academic performance is an area of child health where nutrition has a major role. A study of primary school children has confirmed that supplements of the Omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish and flax seed oils) could take them from bottom of the class to the top in just two school terms.
The results of The Durham Trial state that more than 40% of children could benefit from essential fatty acid (EFA) supplements. The study, which involved a dozen primary schools, concludes that children given these ‘brain food’ supplements register dramatic improvements in reading age and numeracy.
Omega-3 fatty acids are crucial for normal brain development, but these EFAs are seriously lacking in modern diets and deficiencies are thought to be common.
Dr Madeleine Portwood, a psychologist with Durham education authority who led the research told the Sunday Times newspaper that: “We had nine-year olds go from a reading age of eight up to 13.”
The Food Standards Agency recommends salmon, trout and mackerel for people looking to increase their intake of fish oils. It warned recently, however, that some fish can contain high levels of toxic chemicals such as mercury and dioxin. Omega-3s can also be obtained from Flax Seed Oil, which children may find more palatable.
Viridian Nutrition has developed a pleasant-tasting 100% organic Omega-3 oil from pressed seeds, viridiKid Organic Omega-3 Oil is additive-free and naturally flavoured with organic vanilla and orange.

HEALTHY CHILDREN = HAPPY MUMS!
Breathing easier with Pycnogenol
Just a few months ago, nine-year-old Jenny Grant was using steroid inhalers to control her asthma. Diagnosed asthmatic when she was a toddler, Jenny had used inhalers regularly day and night. “I just don’t like giving her these chemicals,” explains mum, Sarah. “But she was really very poorly.”
Sarah is delighted with Jenny’s new asthma remedy, a simple extract of pine bark from France called Pycnogenol, as recommended by her local health food shop, after Sarah had read a review of scientific research in the newspaper. Published in the Journal of Asthma in early 2005, the researchers found that two thirds of asthmatic children managed to come off inhalers after three-month’s supplementation with Pycnogenol. The dosage used in the study was 1mg for every 1 lb of body weight. Jenny has been taking one capsule of Pycnogenol 50mg daily and has noticed immediate results. As Jenny is just 9, she finds it difficult to swallow capsules and so her mum breaks it open and mixes the powder with yoghurt.
“Within a week, Jenny was saying how much better she felt. After a month, she was completely off the inhalers and her breathing much improved,” explains Sarah. “I have noticed that she is breathing through her nose as well as her mouth now. She enjoys swimming so much more too, since she is no longer struggling to breathe.”

Keep healthy, even when the pollen count is high! Nip hayfever in the bud
YOU MAY GENERALLY ASSOCIATE HAYFEVER WITH THE SPRING, but in fact it can occur during Spring, Summer and Autumn, depending on exactly the source of your allergy. From March to May, pollens from trees are the most common cause of hay fever.
From May to July grass and flowers are in pollen, making these the most common cause of hay fever. Some people do get hay fever into the autumn months. However this is rare and is usually caused by weeds such as nettles and docks, late flowering plants, and mould spores.
The symptoms are the same no matter when you experience them and include a runny nose, itchy, watery, bloodshot eyes and repeated sneezing attacks. As with all allergies, the symptoms happen as a result of your immune system overreacting to a normally harmless substance in this case, pollen. When the body comes into contact with pollen, cells in the lining of your nose, mouth and eyes release a chemical called histamine that triggers the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
Starting on an anti-hayfever programme ahead of when the pollen is in the air, makes a lot of sense. Fortunately, nature has provided some of its own remedies…

Just as I heard on this mornings news about a massive iceberg that has broken free from the Antarctic ice shelf I saw this report about the decline in sea ice in the Canadian Arctic. For more details about the Antarctic problem please take a look at these pictures
The Arctic could be ice-free in just three years – Sea ice in Canada’s fragile Arctic is melting faster than anyone expected, the lead investigator in Canada’s largest climate-change study yet said Friday — raising the possibility that the Arctic could, in a worst-case scenario, be ice-free in about three years. Professor David Barber, the lead investigator of the Circumpolar Flaw Lead System Study, said the rapid decay of thick Arctic Sea ice highlights the rapid pace of climate change in the North and foreshadows what will come in the South.
A good diet, plenty of fresh air and exercise plus lots of love and attention will generally keep your child healthy, bright and happy. But a good diet isn’t always easy to maintain in a child and assumes that your child enjoys eating leafy green foods and oily fish on a regular basis.
No-one would suggest that stuffing your child full of vitamin pills is the solution either, but a balanced diet topped up with a good quality multivitamin and essential fatty acids can give reassurance to parents that their children are avoiding any obvious nutritional deficiencies.
There is a no-nonsense, no-nasties multivitamin complex which contain the Government recommended levels of nutrients for children, without the unnecessary additives contained in many other children’s vitamin products. These are also genuinely sugar-free with no hidden extras, no aspartame, saccharine or other sweeteners – not even fructose, just the vitamins and minerals your child needs each day in a tiny, easy-to-swallow, all-vegetarian/vegan capsule.
The multivitamin complex is seriously formulated for long-term daily intake during the early years, the all-important pre- and post-pubescent transition and onwards into adulthood.

Although more men may be saved from dying of prostate cancer due to advances in screening and treatment, a new study suggests that emotional stress (which causes an increase of metabolic acid in the blood and then tissues) from being diagnosed with the disease carries deadly risks. A study of more than four million Swedish men over the age of 30 found that the diagnosis of prostate cancer, which occurred in more than 168,000 of them during the study period, amplified the risk of fatal heart problems and suicide.
In men who were diagnosed before 1987, the risk of a fatal heart attack during the week following diagnosis increased 11-fold, and the risk of suicide increased 800 percent. After 1987, the risks of suffering a non-fatal heart attack during the first week of diagnosis fell to 300 percent. But the risk of suicide, although small, held steady. During the year following diagnosis, the risk of both heart attacks and suicide diminished but did not disappear.
